This past week, Liberty High School’s Advanced Video Production students showcased their talent and professionalism on a big stage at the Kern High Film Festival, held at the historic Fox Theater. Competing among strong programs from across the county, the Liberty High School News Team earned top honors, taking 1st Place for Best Student Produced News Show.

Liberty High School is proud to announce that Chris Barron will serve as the school’s next Athletic Director beginning in June, continuing a strong tradition of leadership and commitment to student-athletes.
As we look ahead, we also extend our sincere gratitude to outgoing Athletic Director Mark Erickson for his years of dedicated service to Liberty High School. Erickson has spent countless hours supporting our athletic programs, coaches, and, most importantly, our student-athletes. His heart for kids and his commitment to providing the best possible opportunities were evident in everything he did. His impact on Liberty athletics will be felt for years to come, and we thank him for the lasting legacy he leaves behind.

While the spotlight at swim meets often shines on the lanes, just a few feet away Liberty’s diving team is quietly putting in the same level of dedication, discipline, and pride in representing the Patriots.
Liberty’s diving program may be small in numbers, but it is big in commitment. This season, four student-athletes have taken on the challenge of one-meter springboard diving. Competing at the varsity level are Genevieve Payette, Averie Kline, and Corbin Turner, while Nathan Chavez represents Liberty on the junior varsity side. Together, they have built a tight-knit group that continues to grow in skill and confidence with each meet.

The energy in Liberty’s gym this past Monday evening was something special as the school hosted its first-ever Patriot Pulse Showcase, an event dedicated entirely to celebrating the spirit teams who bring life, pride, and energy to campus all year long.

Liberty High School proudly hosted the Patriot Games track meet on Friday, April 24, delivering a day filled with record-breaking performances, dominant victories, and standout efforts across the board. Competing against a strong field, Liberty athletes rose to the occasion and set the tone early, ultimately sweeping both the boys and girls team titles.

For the second year in a row, Liberty High School’s robotics team traveled to St. Louis, Missouri to compete in the prestigious 2026 VEX Robotics World Championship, held April 21–24. Facing off against more than 800 teams from 44 countries, our Patriots proudly represented Liberty on the global stage.

Last Friday, April 17th, Liberty’s Esports team traveled to CTEC to compete in the Spring Finals, showcasing their skill and determination against top players from across the district. The excitement continued into Saturday, April 18th, as several of our students advanced to the Grand Finals of the Super Smash Bros. tournament.

On Wednesday after school, 16 Liberty Patriots competed in the AP Statistics and AP Calculus Math Competition at Independence High School. With eight students in each event, Liberty faced off against strong competition from local schools as well as programs from the coast. By the end of the day, it was clear that our Patriots were competing at an entirely different level.
